Optical Analysis of Monolayers at Surfaces and Interfaces
Surface as well as interface properties are crucial for tailoring advanced materials, especially if the structure size in one or more dimensions...

AlGaN/GaN Electrolyte-Gate Field-Effect Transistors as Transducers for Bioelectronic Devices
AlGaN/GaN electrolyte gate field-effect transistors are assessed as a transducer device for biosensor applications. Their low-frequency noise power...

Dumbbell Model for Dilute and Semi-Dilute Solutions
Dumbbell models are very crude representations of polymer molecules. Too crude to be of much interest to a polymer chemist, since it in no way...
-
Thermodynamics – Past, Present and Future
We begin with historical remarks on the basic contributions to thermodynamics and statistics with some bias to scientists working in Berlin as...

Dynamical Variational Principles for Strongly Correlated Electron Systems
The self-energy-functional approach (SFA) is discussed in the context of different variational principles for strongly correlated electron systems....
-
Chemistry and Morphological Properties of Metal Interfaces to Organic Semiconductors
Metal contacts to organic semiconductors play a decisive role for the performance of organic based devices such as organic light emitting diodes,...

Two-Gap Superconductivity in Magnesium Diboride
It is by now generally accepted that the recently discovered superconductor MgB2 is a superconductor with two energy gaps. Here we discuss how this...

Atomic-Scale Properties of High-k Dielectrics: Ab Initio Study for Pr-Based Materials
We discuss the atomic and electronic structures and energetics of native point defects and of impurities (Si, Ti, B, moisture) in PrO1.5 and, to some...

Dynamics of Membranes: From Passive to Active Systems
Fluid lipid membranes, which, together with filamentous proteins like actin, form the basic structural component of cells, have been a central topic...
-
Applications of the Correlation Length
The correlation length is the system–dependent parameter, which defines the structure of the dominant current–carrying (electric or fluid) paths....

Pressure Saturation Curves and the Critical Volume Fraction for Percolation
The pressure-saturation curves of porous media give fundamental information about the pore space. In equilibrium, ignoring effects due to hysteresis,...

Effects of Multi-Scale Heterogeneity
It is generally agreed that problems with multi-scale heterogeneity present the biggest challenge to computation and understanding. A few such...
-
Equilibrium Statistics: Monte Carlo Methods
Monte Carlo methods use random numbers, or ‘random’ sequences, to sample from a known shape of a distribution, or to extract distribution by other...

Intrinsic Spin Hall Effect
A brief review is given on a spin Hall effect, where an external electric field induces a transverse spin current. It has been recognized over 30...

Sol-Gel Approaches to Photonic Crystal Systems
A prerequisite for an efficient ”molding the flow of light” by photonic crystals is the molding of materials in desired nanostructures. Very often,...

Electron Spin Relaxation in Semiconductors
We review recent progress in the understanding of electron spin relaxation mechanisms in zinc-blende semiconductors. Increased spin lifetimes are...
